If you install Guix using the binary installation method, this will not be an issue, because the binary install tarball is self-contained, i.e. it includes all of Guix's dependencies, including Guile, GnuTLS, sqlite3, guile-sqlite3, guile-json, libgc, libffi, etc, all the way down to the C library, even low-level things like the dynamic linker, all in /gnu/store. You should be able to unpack it on any system with a Linux kernel on one of our supported architectures, no matter how bare its userspace environment is, follow the remaining install steps described on the following page, and it should just work. https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Binary-Installation.html Mark
